It looks engine-less? I always loved that body style (Never cared for the Starsky and Hutch later versions). All 60's era Fords have rust and usually a lot more than you think. If you are considering it, bring dirty clothes, a magnet, mirror, and a flashlight. Crawl all over it and see if you feel even more excited once you complete your inspection. That's how I know the car is for me. However, I am notorious for buying rust buckets just for the challenge or repairing them, so beware!

BTW, When I worked for RCA, I spent a good bit of time in Alice Springs (early 80's). Do they still have the boat race (Henly Todd?). You Aussie's really know how to party!
